STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

AQN-1Carbohydrate-binding protein AQN-1; AQN proteins mediate the binding of boar spermatozoa to component(s) of the egg's zona pellucida by a carbohydrate-binding mechanism. AQN proteins are secretory components of the male accessory glands being coated to the sperm surface at the time of ejaculation. They possess as well heparin-, serine-protease-inhibitor-binding capability; Belongs to the spermadhesin family. (132 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ACRBP
Acrosin-binding protein; May be involved in packaging and condensation of the acrosin zymogen in the acrosomal matrix via its association with proacrosin.

SPAM1
Hyaluronidase.
   
 
 0.703
LOC396905
Sperm-associated acrosin inhibitor; Inhibits acrosin.
      
 0.684
SPINK2
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 2 isoform 1.
      
 0.608
BSP1
Seminal plasma protein pB1; May form a complex with spermadhesin AQN-1 which possesses phosphorylcholine-binding activity.
   
 
 0.605
LCN5
Lipocln_cytosolic_FA-bd_dom domain-containing protein; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
      
 0.599
SPACA1
Sperm acrosome membrane-associated protein 1; Plays a role in acrosome expansion and establishment of normal sperm morphology during spermatogenesis. Important for male fertility.
    
 
 0.574
ZPBP
Zona pellucida-binding protein 1; Plays a role in acrosome compaction and sperm morphogenesis. Is implicated in sperm-oocyte interaction during fertilization. Belongs to the zona pellucida-binding protein Sp38 family.
   
  
 0.555
NETO1
Neuropilin and tolloid-like protein 1 isoform 3.
      
 0.510
